Dear Sun

And the earth writes to the Sun........................


Dear SUN,

You were smiling so bright
Tickling me with your beaming rays
Chasing me away from my sleep upright
I had to open my eyes

I really don't know who was passing by whom
But I could see the flowers bloom
Your  radiant greeting lit the little world

That end of horizon my sight caught
The mist falling from the tip of leaf
For once, I could clearly visualize the colors that the butterfly brought
Brightening my way, your beams gave me a relief
Making me aware of how far to go



And then you bid me goodbye
Making me wonder why
Tried to reason out all your probable intentions
Did I travel fast?
Or were we heading in the opposite direction
Chased all possibilities in my mind

Looked up in darkness, to search you in vain
Suddenly, I could see thousands of stars
Making me think beyond the horizon you lit
Letting me realize my eternal journey
A dervish- a traveler through this world
The quest to cross the vast sky to reach final home- among the stars.
Maybe you were too bright to let me realize my ultimate destination
Yes true you just highlighted a small step

May be you would come again tomorrow
Making me appreciate the beauty of this journey
But this time, would know that it's Important to let you go
May be you too were travelling and I too gave you momentary rest
I too might have healed you?

I too might have waked you up?
